Spectroscopist vs chemical compounder

Differences between spectroscopist and chemical compounder duties and responsibilities

Spectroscopist example responsibilities.

• Manage the QC program for custom synthesize DNA (oligomer) using laser base mass spectroscopy (MALDI-TOF).
• Manage QC of molecular beacons by fluorescence spectroscopy.
• Perform routine NMR maintenance, including liquid nitrogen and liquid helium fills.
• Decrease sample evaluation times from days to hours by performing in-house IR analysis on submit samples.
• Perform large-scale purification using FPLC, HPLC, immuno-affinity chromatography.
• Establish the pharmaceutical testing laboratory and transition the laboratory to being fully functional in GMP compliance.

Chemical compounder example responsibilities.

• Manage daily production schedule, monitor machine operation, addressed any etching machinery problems.
• Add specified materials to tanks, vessels, mixers, agitators to produce require specified results.
• Forward samples to laboratory for QC inspection.
• Maintain accurate records of QC checks, batch cards and waste performance.
• Maintain sanitization standards for all holding tanks and filler equipment using CIP system.
• Train to work with PV and CV teams to be in compliance with new FDA requirements.
